Doing Business in the DIFC

This comprehensive guide has been prepared to assist financial institutions and ancillary service providers seeking to set up and operate in the Dubai International Financial Centre. Produced by PricewaterhouseCoopers in collaboration with the DIFC, this second edition of the guide has been compiled to provide a more up-to-date understanding of the functioning of the DIFC, the types of financial activities that can be undertaken from within this financial district and recent changes in laws and regulations. In addition to clearly outlining the benefits of doing business in the DIFC, the guide seeks to answer the many questions that businesses may have about the organisation, including its structure, sectors of activity, business licensing and regulatory matters, as well as providing accounting, tax and legal information. The guide also provides useful insights on living in Dubai as well as exchange controls, immigration and employment matters.
